To their great credit, Nebraskans have valued postsecondary education since before statehood, and they have created and supported a comprehensive network of colleges and universities that has continuously developed to meet the needs of students, communities, and the state.  \nThe constitution and statutes of Nebraska assign the Coordinating Commission for Postsecondary Education the responsibility for comprehensive planning for postsecondary education in Nebraska. The purpose of the Comprehensive Statewide Plan for Postsecondary Education is to provide direction for the future of postsecondary education in Nebraska. It identifies goals that will lead to an educationally and economically sound, vigorous, progressive, and coordinated higher education network throughout the state.
